Service and Staff

1st day-Zero shampoo & body wash. 3rd day ran out of shampoo & body wash. Would have thought that this was something that was checked during room service daily.

Ship tip

Its size & number of people on board can be a bit overwhelming to a new cruiser.

Fist time cruiser & 1st time being out of the US. I wanted to look and purchase gifts!! After the extreme harassment I walked away without buying one thing. The market salesmen's were ridiculous!! So disappointing!
